I’m aware of that. Might be just my personal preference to have things neatly sorted in perfectly well labeled boxes, so I can always find what I was looking for.
How would you find things you weren't looking for?
This is a forum, not a library.
Where is a source for the new firmware?
Can´t find any...
It seems, the usual website (This) only provides the old version 00.04.03.02.03.Read this thread:

You'll find a download link in message #70. It's an edited firmware without the 'pluses' errors...I thought Rigol released an official update?
They did...

Yes, well I navigated to post #70 as instructed and found a rogue ZIP file attached.
Hi guys, please is there any way to feed math results to measurement functions controlled by the left-side buttons? Typically measuring parameters of a differential signal calculated by A - B.
Fantastic, thanks a lot!
Fantastic, thanks a lot!
It's really a user interface fail, IMHO.
When you press 'math' twice there's a little light that lights up next to the multifunction knob to let you know that the vertical controls will apply to the math trace but the measurement icons on the left don't change to match.
Note that you can also add the math values to 'Measure all':

Just purchased a secondhand DS1054Z which has had the 100MHz hack upgrade applied. Currently the firmware is reported as being 00:04:02:SP3 board is reported as 0.1.1 looking at the release notes the firmware date is 21/10/2014 (Australian date convention as all will be below)
Where I am confused is if I go to the Rigol website http://int.rigol.com/Support/SoftDownload/3 and go to support the latest firmware is showing as 00:04:04:03:02 dated the 2/6/2017.

Now I have found another member here "Shock" post up this url as where you get the firmware update from http://beyondmeasure.rigoltech.com/acton/fs/blocks/showLandingPage/a/1579/p/p-0019/t/page/fm/0 where it is shows the latest firmware is 00:04:04:03:05 dated the 28/4/2018. In the release notes of this firmware version it doesn't recognise 00:04:04:03:02??? Is "beyondmeasure.rigoltech.com" an official Rigol site, is this where the latest is at?
All the release updates up and until the variation I have listed above are the same. It is only the latest update that differs.

If you are confused by the versions naming, there's a way (menu-menu-force-menu in the trigger IIRC) and then go to look at the FW version again in your scope and will appear as the full code. Also shows a few other options in different parts of the scope. Turn off and on and go back to normal life.

Would appreciate those in the know letting me know what is the official Rigol latest firmware is?
Also is there any issue applying firmware updates to a hacked DS1054Z?
How in the world did I miss Rigol's #1 DS1000z fan dissing their UI?
"I saw in some earlier post that doing an update with bootloaders 0.0.1.3 and earlier cause an issue and some scope were bricked. I believe this was with earlier firmware updates, can anyone confirm if the latest F/W update v00:04:04:03:05 has address the earlier bootloader version update issue and in particular the bootloader version I have of 0.0.1.2??"
My scope had a bootloader and revision that suggested it would be prone to that bug but I have been able to update without trouble. I am currently on the patched version mentioned above and all is well.
Enabling 100MHz does not make the scope do anything it isn't designed to do already. It simply enables functionality that is turned on by default on the DS1104Z, but was disabled on the DS1054Z.
